It was a cold, bleak day. The lighting was poor and so was the photography.
Common redshank (Tringa totanus)
Eurasian oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus)
Common ringed plover (Charadrius hiaticula)
Dunlin (Calidris alpina)
Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos)
(Ruddy) turnstone (Arenaria interpres)
Eurasian wigeon (Anas penelope)
At this point we stopped for a coffee break at Linda's place and met her canine behemoth.
The hills of mainland Scotland.
Eurasian curlew (Numenius arquata)
Red-breasted mergansers (Mergus serrator), I think.
Pair of wigeon
Hooded crow (Corvus cornix) watching a European otter (Lutra lutra) tucking into his fish and chips.
Black-tailed godwit (Limosa limosa). Can be differentiated from the bar-tailed godwit by its straight bill.
With a dimming sun and a cooling wind we left Rubha Ardnish for another day.
